Cataluña has come up with a new way to get more people to donate blood in the region. They have launched a new campaign called ‘Tengo sangre de sibarita’ – ‘I have the blood of a gourmet’.

No, they are not jumping on the current fashionable Vampire craze, but instead people who give blood at the Sant Pau, Clínic or Vall d’Hebron Hospitals in Barcelona will be offered a tasting menu created by the prestigious chefs, Fermi Puig, Ada Parellada, and Favián Martin. Ferran Adrià is also expected to join the initiative in October.

The health authorities are expecting a rush of donors, and you can even book your place online at www.tincsangde.org/Sibarita
